Setting Yourself Up for Success with Scott Maderer - 197

In this week's episode, I sat down with Scott Maderer, author of Inspired Living and founder of Inspired Stewardship, to tackle the big question: How do you find your calling and make money management something that supports your life instead of running it?

Whether you’ve ever felt stuck in a job that doesn’t feel like your purpose, or you’re just tired of money stress getting in the way of the life you want, this episode will give you the tools and mindset to move forward. We talk about identifying your calling, building systems that keep money from being a constant worry, and setting up your life so you can focus on what really matters.

💰 This Week’s Money Talking Points

1. Does everyone have a calling?
2. How do you identify a ‘calling’?
